The WMS.SWG is preparing an standard about the TileMatrixSet concept. this is useful for WMTS GeoPackage and MapML. The new thing is a list of some TileMatrixSets that can be common for several global applications. It includes a previous internal NGA work about it.

The current proposed list is: D.1 World Web Mercator Quad TileMatrixSet definition. 29 D.2 World Mercator WGS84 Quad TileMatrixSet definition. 30 D.3 World CRS84 Quad TileMatrixSet definition 32 D.4 World Transverse Mercator WGS84 Quad family TileMatrixSet definition. 34 D.5 Arctic WGS 84 Polar Stereographic Quad TileMatrixSet definition 36 D.6 Antarctic WGS84 Polar Stereographic Quad definition 37 D.7 European ETRS89 LAEA Quad TileMatrixSet TileMatrixSet definition 39

We need to ensure that the tables describing the tilematrixset are ok and several vendors are able to implement them with no issues and can comply with the NGA recomendations and the tilematrixset at the same time. In addition, other global tilematrixset could emerge from this work.
